Best Minecraft 1.20 Seeds on all platforms
Each of these Minecraft 1.20 seeds can be used for either Bedrock or Java editions. The biomes and general geography will stay the same, but the structures may change. This is reflected in the coordinate tables provided for each seed, which show identical geographic coordinates but different structural coordinates.
15 - Lush Mines
Seed: 8083293648019459621
This Lush Cave expands through multiple caves and layers in the earth. It has several overflowing pools of water, helping players easily access each level. Bedrock players will be able to find a mineshaft towards the beginning of the game for some easy loot. With a little extra exploration, Java players will come across one as well.

14 - Kelp Temples
Seed: 175004113439290869
The Jungle Temple in this seed overlooks a kelp-filled ocean. Hiding in the kelp is an Ocean Monument, which stares back at the Jungle Temple. After looting both of these kelpy temples, there are a few shipwrecks and ruins in the ocean that can be explored.

13 - Mushroom Madness
Seed: 4447483029302122018
Mushroom lovers rejoice! This large Mushroom Island can be found about 500 blocks from the coast near Spawn. It is surrounded by both Warm and Cold Oceans, giving players access to all types of ruins as well as shipwrecks and Ocean Monuments. Gather dark oak from Spawn to craft a boat, then sail towards the island while gathering all of the treasure in your path.

12 - Windswept Desert Village
Seed: 6916168680308682761
Floating islands and towering hills surround one-half of this large Desert Village. The other side of the village is pressed against a Coral Reef. Bedrock players will not have this village, but they'll have the perfect space to start their own! All players will be able to find shipwrecks and Warm Ocean Ruins scattered around the Coral Reef.

11 - Dripstone Cave beneath Woodland Mansion
Seed: -4590553607283283313
Bedrock players will adore this unique Woodland Mansion! It reminded me of playing in the moat around Peach's Castle in Super Mario 64. The Mansion itself can be explored as usual, but venturing into the area beneath it reveals a large Dripstone Cave system as well as a secret meadow. An enchanted fairy garden could be built here, or perhaps a staircase down from one of the first-floor rooms in the Mansion.

10 - Coral Badlands
Seed: -4832498267719261901
If you don't dive into the Coral Reef next to Spawn, you'll never discover that the Badlands in this seed are hiding a cool, partially underwater cavern! The Wooded Badlands biome at the top of the hill can be used for wood for a crafting table, tools, and torches. After you've gathered enough and a little dirt for growing saplings, take a leap of faith into the ocean and head to the cave to begin an entirely new adventure.

9 - Mansion Above Lush Ravine
Seed: -8392463792194580504
Set against a backdrop of picturesque mountains, this Woodland Mansion is just as pretty as it is resourceful. It stands above a Lush Cave ravine, with several cobblestone pillars extending from the Mansion to the cave's floor. There is even a small gap between the second floor and the third where players can sneak in and ambush the Pillagers inside the Mansion. During my journey into the Mansion, I did not find any secret rooms but did come across many rooms containing chests.

8 - Windswept Spire
Seed: -5805094738259097562
The only signs of life within the desolate Frozen Ocean are the spruce trees growing all over this Windswept biome. It's the perfect place to build a fantasy-style building, like a wizard's tower or an ancient library. Adventure-style players may also enjoy this seed as inspiration for an Antarctic-style shipwreck survival story—especially with the many shipwrecks scattered about the ocean.

7 - Natural Waterpark
Seed: 1140028404943297831
These amazing pockets of Windswept biomes seem to emulate a massive water resort. There are plenty of sliding slopes, tall cliffs, and most importantly, lots of water to explore and splash around in. While looking around this area, it also reminded me of a Chao Garden from one of the Sonic Adventure games. If combined with the official Minecraft Sonic texture pack, this seed will truly be a nostalgic sight to behold.

6 - Serene Landscapes
Seed: 5604536942354129104
The many caves piercing through this land make it more dangerous than most Plains biomes, but that danger only elevates its beauty. A snowy mountaintop filled with precious ores lies to the right. Java players will find a village amidst the danger, while Bedrock players will be able to enjoy the space as-is. If the blazing sun over the mostly tree-less plain gets you too hot, cool off in the nearby lake or one of the many caves.

5 - Picturesque Scenery
Seed: 7370144044535963269
Of all of the seeds I've explored in Minecraft, this is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful. I spawned in a lush and vibrant Bamboo Jungle surrounded by multiple mountains. One of the mountains is very stony with a small icy patch, while the other is taller with more snow. There is also a sprawling Birch Forest next to the Jungle as well as a Lush Cave only a short distance away. If you try this seed out for yourself, you'll never want to leave!

4 - Cherry Village Hill
Seed: -6513326223170930471
This Cherry Grove hill seems as if it was made specifically for the Plains Village on top of it. It contains multiple levels of dirt platforms that the villagers built their homes and farms on, plus a cave toward the bottom to get some easy ores. As a special touch to this already unique seed, the lone cherry tree to the right of the village makes up its own tiny Cherry Grove biome.

3 - Fragmented Peninsula
Seed: 2621361697578117101
While Spawn appears to be on a small Desert Island near the shore, it is actually on a peninsula that remains connected to the mainland beneath the sea. A gorgeous Coral Reef surrounds it, littered with shipwrecks, ruins, and other treasures. Java players will be able to find a rare diamond fossil on this seed, while Bedrock players will have a nearby cluster of Large Warm Ocean ruins instead. As a bonus, a Lush Cave hides beneath the peninsula! Arm yourself with brushes, shovels, and pickaxes to explore this seed to its fullest potential.

2 - River Valley Island
Seed: -6260761228952867864
The world starts in the middle of a Plains valley. The land you spawn on is isolated from the rest of the valley by a circular river, while Cherry Grove hills loom above you on three sides. A Plains Village can be seen on one of these hills. This seed is perfect for creating a castle or town surrounded by a moat. Plus, the close proximity of the villagers means it will be very easy to move them into your town.

1 - Treacherous Desert
Seed: -3620289166610301037
Spawn is set between Badlands and Desert biomes. This provides a very mountainous landscape that forces the player to venture further in order to find resources and treasures. In Java, the star of the show is a Desert Village that balances atop of one of the first hills you come across. Players must traverse the dangerous dunes and make their way up to the village in order to acquire materials and meet merchants. This village does not exist in Bedrock—however, there are villages deeper within the desert that make up for this.
